YP - The Real Yellow PagesSM - helps you find the right local businesses to meet your specific needs. Search results are sorted by a combination of factors to give you a set of choices in response to your search criteria. These factors are similar to those you might use to determine which business to select from a local Yellow Pages directory, including proximity to where you are searching, expertise in the specific services or products you need, and the amount of useful content in the listing, such as consumer reviews, detailed descriptions and photos, to help you evaluate a business's suitability for you. In addition, YP advertisers receive higher placement in the default ordering of search results on our sites and apps, and they may appear in sponsored listings on the top or side of the search results page.

Hi. My partner and I eat at this restaurant once a week. The only reason I did not give Papa's and Beer a five star review is because, on one occasion, the waitress brought me the wrong order. (She didn't speak very good English, if at all). Generally speaking, the food has been wonderful and the wait staff always friendly and quite attentive. It seems that within seconds, not minutes, free, fresh tortilla chips and a bean dip are placed on the table upon the clients being seated. There is a free condiment 'bar' where one can load up on delicious, variously colored and flavored dips, from mild to 'packs a great punch.' Most days there are drink specials. Their Monday special, a margarita for 3.75 is ample and delicious, made with first rate alcohols. The wait staff, when unoccupied, gather together and are always laughing. This only adds to the pleasant atmosphere. I highly recommend this restaurant. Warm Greetings to Papa's and Bier, Patrice T.

This is MUCH better now than the previous review (written in their early days) indicates. It's become our default place to go when we're not specifically in the mood for something else, which is several times a month, almost weekly. We love the food and drinks, and the service is now top-notch. Yes the menu is a little bit La Paz and a little bit new, but the execution is now excellent, and they've earned our business! We too were sad to see La Paz go, but frankly their quality was off in their latter days, and I guess the new owners inherited some of those issues, but they have been correctly addressed as far as we're concerned! But don't take our word for it--go see what we mean!

We took our family there after Christmas and wow what a treat. Some friends of ours told us about Ritas and how great it was. Friday night was busy and the service was fast and friendly. I had the Mexican Lasagna and my wife had the Shrimp Burrito. Both are a must try. Kid friendly and the server brought our kids some dough to play with. Ritas was fun and festive and we'll be back.
